see also, the hbomberguy read of the first sonic game
The second Mario Movie lost me when it played Thunderstruck while Donkey Kong and Mario were fighting.
I loves me some Akka Dakka, but there’s such a deep musical well to draw from with all the Mario games that it made it feel even more like an unscrupulous cash grab.
I've never seen anyone say "Akka Dakka" before and clearly I was missing out. Also, agreed on all points.
An Aussie guy told me once that's what they call it, at least some of them
It's true, that's how it's said down here! Usually by fans more so than just generally.
I'm pretty sure that Jack Black contractually requires that all projects he works on have to include at least one AC/DC song.
Haven't watched the "new" one. Having said that, it's an unfair comparison even if it seems like an obvious comparison to pretty much everybody 5 and older who is aware of "Mario Brothers".
To be fair the majority of modern movies are just cameos and references. So while it might have sucked (don't know haven't seen it and don't intend to) it's probably on par with the modern craptacular that is cinema.
That said I have always loved the OG Mario movie because its just Fun. Outside of that one movie I never cared for anything related to Nintendo, thats how great I think that one stupid movie is.
One of these films has 'Walk the dinosaur', The other does not.
One of these films has the 2 towers get destroyed, and the other did not
Well, one was based off the video game, one loosely referenced.
Niether was a great movie, but kid me enjoyed the John Legluigi performance alot. Guess it depends on what ya like.
It warms my heart to see cyberpunk film get some love. It's an entertaining film. I even have the book version of that one!
I think the new one is funnily written. Sorry for being a pleb.
